This is a really nice take on what's considered as one of the ugliest fishes in the world. I will say though that you might want to change the line on her back to curve a upward near the end or something similar, connecting that "spine" line all the way down to her butt, cause for me, right now, it just looks like she's sticking out of a flat shape (the one that makes up her tail - and I'm sure the shading has something to do with it, but I think that it's more on that back line), rather than being a whole being that's bent over.

Yes, definitely cool concept! I do agree with rincs about the pose, I think adding a smoother transition from her spine to her butt would make it easier to tell what's going on with her body and give the pose more energy. I do like the "spikiness" of the angle of her pose that's already coming through now, though! It really adds to her character!
